HOUSTON — Houston police are hoping someone can identify a suspect wanted for shooting and killing a man in northwest Houston.
The suspect also shot a woman, but she survived, according to police.
This happened on Sunday at about 5:25 a.m. in the 7400 block of Hillmont St.
Police said Marlin Jordan, 26, and Maya Brashier, 19, were returning home from work when they were approached by an armed, unknown black man who demanded money.
The suspect shot Jordan and then shot Brashier after taking her purse and backpack. He then ran away.
The gunman is described as a black man in his 40s who is about 5 feet 9 inches tall and average built. The suspect was wearing a white muscle shirt with gray sweatpants or shorts.
